| c2tarun | I was trying to pack bluedevil, I didn't understand one thing. What is the differece b/w building a package via debuild and pbuilder-dist? | 02:19 |
|---|---|---|
| kklimonda | c2tarun: debuild builds the package on your system, pbuilder creates a chroot in which the package is built. | 02:21 |
| c2tarun | kklimonda: how can i put my package into REVU for reviewing? | 02:23 |
| kklimonda | !revu | 02:23 |
| ubottu | REVU is a web-based tool to give people who have worked on Ubuntu packages a chance to "put their packages out there" for other people to look at and comment on in a structured manner. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/Packages/REVU | 02:23 |
| kklimonda | c2tarun: ^ | 02:24 |
| c2tarun | kklimonda: I was actually reading that page only :) its written there two motu members have to comment it. Can't we get it commented here on IRC? | 02:24 |
| micahg | c2tarun: comment in this case means advocate and they have to be able to examine the package | 02:25 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ok, and a line 'dpkg-buildpackage -S -sa -rfakeroot' I think this command will create .change file and I have on change file with me inside natty_results folder. Are they the same? | 02:27 |
| micahg | c2tarun: no, you need a source upload | 02:27 |
| micahg | err, that should be the right command though... | 02:28 |
| * micahg uses debuild -S --sa | 02:28 | |
| micahg | oops, 1 dash | 02:28 |
| c2tarun | micahg: I used that already before running pbuilder, now running it again will make any difference? | 02:29 |
| micahg | c2tarun: you don't run it again, you need to upload the source_changes file to revu when you think it's ready | 02:29 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ok, and I am also trying a application directly from its source code, its a new one 'schedio'. I think I dont have source_chages file with me, all I have is schedio_2.0.0-0ubuntu1_i386.changes file | 02:32 |
| micahg | c2tarun: that's a binary changes file | 02:32 |
| micahg | err, that's a build record... | 02:32 |
| c2tarun | micahg: if that's a build rlsecord | 02:33 |
| c2tarun | sorry | 02:33 |
| c2tarun | micahg: if that's a build record then what is last_operation.log? | 02:33 |
| micahg | err, not a build record, it's a binary changes file :) | 02:33 |
| * micahg was right the first time | 02:34 | |
| micahg | c2tarun: Ubuntu only accepts source uploads | 02:34 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ok i got the source.changes file, its not in natty_results but the folder containing the orig tarball :) | 02:34 |
| micahg | c2tarun: it'll be in the same folder as the .dsc file | 02:34 |
| c2tarun | micahg: one last thing, I am not sure that the developer supplied us with any documentation for man pages, how can I check? | 02:35 |
| micahg | c2tarun: I don't know the various pre-man documentation forms yet | 02:36 |
| c2tarun | micahg: you don't know or I am wrong, there are no man documents before packaging? | 02:36 |
| micahg | c2tarun: upstream can provide various documentation that can be turned into a manpage or they can provide their own man page, I don't know all the details yet | 02:37 |
| micahg | c2tarun: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete#Man%20Pages | 02:37 |
| c2tarun | micahg: what if someone uploaded the source.changes file without proper man pages? | 02:38 |
| micahg | c2tarun: it'll probably be commented on | 02:38 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ok, thanks :) | 02:38 |
| micahg | c2tarun: here's the Debian policy manual on man pages, Ubuntu's a little more lenient, http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s12.1 | 02:40 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ubuntu is linient in a way that missing man pages is not considered a bug :)? After reading the packaging documentation I found no .pod files or .bz2 in whole source code? What should I do, build the package and test it on myself first or right away report to the upstream that man pages are missing? | 02:46 |
| c2tarun | ping | 02:53 |
| micahg | c2tarun: you could write a manpage also :) | 02:55 |
| c2tarun | micahg: I never used that application, :( anyway i'll ask upstream for man pages and delay my upload till they supply me the man pages :) | 02:56 |
| micahg | c2tarun: you can get the rest of it reviewed in the mean time | 02:57 |
| c2tarun | micahg: grt :) so I should just upload the source.changes file? | 02:57 |
| micahg | c2tarun: well, you dput the source.changes file and that uploades the source | 02:58 |
| c2tarun | micahg: Ok, i'll do it :) | 02:58 |
| c2tarun | micahg: I uploaded it but couldn't find it on revuwire.com | 03:01 |
| c2tarun | micahg: sorry revu.ubuntuwire.com | 03:01 |
| micahg | c2tarun: did you get an e-mail? | 03:01 |
| c2tarun | micahg: not yet | 03:02 |
| micahg | ah, it's there now | 03:03 |
| micahg | http://revu.ubuntuwire.com/p/schedio | 03:04 |
| micahg | c2tarun: why do you have a debian collab-maint git repo listed? | 03:05 |
| c2tarun | micahg: its from the developer side, I didn't removed it. | 03:05 |
| micahg | c2tarun: what do you mean, didn't you create debian/control? | 03:06 |
| * micahg will comment later on it | 03:06 | |
| c2tarun | micahg: I did, but still dh_make filled some fields by default, so i thought that it may be from the developer :( | 03:07 |
| micahg | c2tarun: no, dh_make creates a basic template, you're supposed to make sure what it did was sane and change whatever is necessary | 03:07 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ok, so my first error, I'll surely remove it in my next upload with man documentation. Any other error? | 03:08 |
| micahg | c2tarun: take a look at revu, it shows the lintian errors, also check the README.* files in debian/ | 03:08 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ok watch file is missing. but I don't understand the error about maintainer field? | 03:10 |
| micahg | c2tarun: you need to run update-maintainer | 03:10 |
| c2tarun | micahg: ok, done. but sir I need some documentation or guidance for watch files, I never used them before. | 03:12 |
| micahg | c2tarun: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete#Creating%20and%20Using%20a%20debian/watch%20File | 03:13 |
| micahg | c2tarun: you might want to bookmark that wiki page :) | 03:13 |
| c2tarun | micahg: sure sir, I already corrected the other two errors, one is of collab-maint git repo and other is of maintainer name and sir do u think I should remove both the README files? | 03:14 |
| c2tarun | micahg: sure I just read those two file and removed it :) | 03:15 |
| micahg | c2tarun: idk, BTW, I've never packaged anything from scratch :), it's generally a good idea to fix any lintian errors in new packages, so if lintian doesn't warn about a lack of a README, you're usually ok | 03:16 |
| guspur | good day | 03:49 |
| guspur | assalamualaikum | 03:49 |
| c2tarun | I am getting this error in watch file http://paste.ubuntu.com/561749/ this is my watch file http://paste.ubuntu.com/561750/ | 04:35 |
| c2tarun | error is when I am uscaning the watch file | 04:36 |
| LaserJock | hi all, how goes it? | 04:59 |
| RAOF | c2tarun: You probably want to use uscan's html-scraping mode; see gnome-do's watch file for an example of doing that with Launchpad. | 05:01 |
| RAOF | Hey LaserJock. What's up? | 05:01 |
| LaserJock | not a lot, thought I'd see how things were going in MOTU world | 05:02 |
| LaserJock | RAOF: how have you been? | 05:06 |
| RAOF | Pretty good. | 05:07 |
| LaserJock | you working for Canonical? | 05:07 |
| RAOF | Yeah! On X. | 05:07 |
| RAOF | 'Tis fun. | 05:07 |
| RAOF | There's not so much motu-ing for me, though. I accidentally let my membership lapse. | 05:08 |
| c2tarun | RAOF: can u please tell me where i can get that watch file? | 05:08 |
| LaserJock | uh oh :-) | 05:08 |
| RAOF | c2tarun: “apt-get source gnome-do; less gnome-do*/debian/watch” :) | 05:08 |
| RAOF | I'll get it back, with interest, by going for core-dev :) | 05:09 |
| LaserJock | how's Natty shaping up? | 05:11 |
| LaserJock | I saw Alpha 2 is almost out | 05:12 |
| c2tarun | RAOF: actually I am sorry to say but I dont know how to make watch files. Can u please help a bit. | 05:12 |
| LaserJock | but haven't been around development for so long I have no idea how it's progressing | 05:12 |
| RAOF | c2tarun: “man uscan” gives a pretty good overview of the contents of a watch file, and you should be able to cargo-cult from the gnome-do watchfile :) | 05:12 |
| RAOF | LaserJock: Natty's wandering along quite nicely. Unity's still got some pretty big rough edges, though. | 05:13 |
| LaserJock | but the basics seem solid? | 05:13 |
| LaserJock | you know, like X ;-) | 05:13 |
| RAOF | As long as you don't want a proprietary driver, yeah :) | 05:14 |

| AnAnt | is alpha2 expected to be released today ? | 14:44 |
| micahg | AnAnt: it's scheduled to be | 14:50 |
| AnAnt | micahg: so I shouldn't upload today to natty ? | 14:50 |
| AnAnt | or it won't make a difference ? | 14:51 |
| micahg | AnAnt: well, only stuff that's not on any images or build-deps for any images, until the alpha 2 release announcement is made | 14:53 |
| AnAnt | micahg: so, universe is fine | 14:54 |
| micahg | AnAnt: no | 14:54 |
| AnAnt | ? | 14:54 |
| micahg | mythbuntu and xubuntu are both seeded from universe | 14:54 |
| AnAnt | ah, ok | 14:54 |
| micahg | AnAnt: so, you have to check each app to see if it's in a seed | 14:54 |
| AnAnt | micahg: how's that ? | 14:55 |
| micahg | AnAnt: apt-cache show pkgname, if there's a task at the bottom, it's in an image, I've been meaning to write a script that checks all the binaries in a src package | 14:57 |
| AnAnt | micahg: that works on maverick too ? | 14:58 |
| micahg | AnAnt: no, tasks might have changed for natty | 14:58 |
| AnAnt | ok | 14:58 |
| micahg | AnAnt: archive open :) | 15:18 |
| AnAnt | great | 15:18 |

| geser | micahg: do you know if there is an replacement for the xul-ext-notify firefox addon? I found it pretty nice to get a desktop notification when a download was finished. It seems to have vanished completely (the homepage link is 404). | 16:20 |
| micahg | geser: is that arch specific? | 16:24 |
| geser | don't know, how can I check it? | 16:37 |
| micahg | geser: you can try installing the version from addons.mozilla.org | 16:38 |
| micahg | it'll give you an error if it's arch specific and you're on amd64 | 16:38 |
| geser | micahg: the problem is that I can't find it on addons.mozilla.org anymore (and the Homepage link on PTS for that packages doesn't work either). | 16:41 |
| geser | So I'm looking for an replacement for it. | 16:42 |
| geser | perhaps I ask bdrung about upstream status of it when he is here (he's listed as uploader for the Debian package) | 16:43 |
| Rhonda | xul-ext-notify | 1.5.4-4build1 | ubuntu/maverick/universe | all | 16:46 |
| Rhonda | Hmm, seems to be removed/blocked from natty? | 16:46 |
| Rhonda | Because it's in Debian squeeze and sid. | 16:46 |
| Rhonda | geser: You could pull it from Debian directly? | 16:47 |
| geser | Rhonda: I could try but I doubt it will work without changes with Firefox 4.0beta | 16:47 |
| Rhonda | But yes, bdrung should know more, he's listed in Uploaders. | 16:47 |
| cjwatson | it was removed due to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopTeam/Specs/Lucid/FirefoxNewSupportModel | 16:47 |
| cjwatson | I imagine, anyway | 16:48 |
| cjwatson | yeah | 16:48 |
| geser | most of the addons I used, I've install over addons.mozilla.org again (or their homepages for a version for 4.0beta) | 16:50 |
| geser | but this last one, I'm still missing and as far as I can tell upstream vanished | 16:50 |
| === shadeslayer is now known as kshadeslayer | ||
| micahg | geser: well, if upstream vanished, we don't want it in the archive anyways, but bdrung can upload a version to the xul-ext PPA | 17:13 |
| micahg | geser: I think chrisccoulson was going to do something with that eventually | 17:14 |
| chrisccoulson | do something with? | 17:15 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: notify-osd (notify-extension seems to have vanished upstream) | 17:16 |
| chrisccoulson | oh, i wasn't going to do anything with that ;) | 17:16 |
| chrisccoulson | i might do something for download notification, but it won't be using that extension | 17:16 |
| chrisccoulson | that's an ugly hack that calls dbus-send ;) | 17:17 |
| micahg | chrisccoulson: I meant with notify-osd in general, not that extension as I remember you saying what you just said about it :) | 17:17 |

| bcurtiswx | StevenK, can I please get https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/folks/0.3.4-0ubuntu1 taken care of, since I don't request these typicaly.. thats called "newed" right? | 22:09 |
| Rhonda | huhm, I have a strange problem, can't seem to create a cowbuilder chroot: sudo nice ionice -c3 cowbuilder --create --basepath ./natty --distribution natty --mirror http://at.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ | 22:17 |
| Rhonda | And it gives me this error in the end: E: Package 'cowdancer' has no installation candidate | 22:18 |
| Rhonda | But cowdancer actually _is_ available in natty? | 22:18 |
| Rhonda | Same with lucid and maverick, I'm currently a bit puzzled. | 22:18 |
| micahg | Rhonda: maybe try in a chroot to see if it has an install failure | 22:19 |
| * micahg has to run, bbiab | 22:19 | |
| bcurtiswx | micahg, thx for the link earlier | 22:19 |
| StevenK | bcurtiswx: They're in the NEW queue, yes. I'm just about to ACCEPT them. | 22:20 |
| Rhonda | micahg: I am currently trying to *create* the chroot. :( | 22:20 |
| StevenK | bcurtiswx: And done. | 22:21 |
| * micahg tries to install cowdancer in a chroot | 22:21 | |
| bcurtiswx | StevenK, so requesting in the future I ask for someone to accept them? | 22:21 |
| bcurtiswx | StevenK, and very much thanks :) | 22:22 |
| StevenK | bcurtiswx: Usually just ping someone who is around and say "<source> is in <source|binary> NEW, could you look at it, please?" | 22:22 |
| micahg | Rhonda: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/562242/ | 22:23 |
| bcurtiswx | StevenK, OK, thanks :) | 22:23 |
| Rhonda | micahg: wtf? | 22:25 |
| micahg | Rhonda: could be my chroot, idk | 22:25 |
| Rhonda | micahg: I tried it for natty, lucid and maverick, neither worked. | 22:25 |
| micahg | hmm | 22:27 |
| ari-tczew | ScottK: ping | 22:39 |
| ScottK | ari-tczew: Pong, but I'm about to leave. | 22:40 |
| ari-tczew | ScottK: could you build one package on armel? | 22:40 |
| ScottK | ari-tczew: Give me a link to the .dsc and I can probably do it later tonight. | 22:40 |
| ari-tczew | ScottK: dget http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libv/libv8/libv8_2.5.9.9-2.dsc | 22:41 |
